I have noticed that after "/etc/init.d/postgresql restart", postmaster is no

Here is fixed "restart" section.

echo -n "Restarting PostgreSQL: "
su - $PGUSER -c "$DAEMON restart -D '$PGDATA' -s -m fast -l $PGLOG"
echo "ok"

In version 7.3.3 is missing "-l $PGLOG" at the end of "$DAEMON restart"
command.

What version of the RPMs are you running (and are they PGDG or RH)? The
version that I have has the following restart section:

restart(){
stop
start
}

I've checked the PGDG RHL9 ones and see the same thing...

I was talking about startup script in contrib directory of postgresql source,
not RH startup script. I mentioned RedHat only because that directory
contains startup scripts for platforms other than linux, and to avoid any
misunderstanding. So this is sure not Yours (RedHat) fault.

Bruce Momijan already applied patch to current CVS, so this if fixed !

Regards !

Patch applied. Thanks.
